    Is Temperature the Future of Digital Vaping?

    uhh it doesn't i don't know where you got that idea. 1-ethyl-3-methylbenzene is NOT toluene. methylbenzene is toluene.

    Is Temperature the Future of Digital Vaping?

    when you see things like "permissible exposure limit" it means its a "necessary evil"... you shouldn't be inhaling it at all. for example you would have a really hard time degreasing engine parts without toluene and a few other toxic solvents all mixed together. the only thing you should be...

    Is Temperature the Future of Digital Vaping?

    Look Kiwivap, i have no idea what your going on about at this point... i have tried to explain this situation, but if you don't have any understanding of the science involved i cant help you. a lot of things in this world are not well understood. 1-ethyl-3-methylbenzene is not a common...

    well did you take chemistry in High School? did you pass? how about college, did you take chemistry in college?

    Is Temperature the Future of Digital Vaping?

    you need to understand that well "toluene" was not found. methylbenzene is toluene. 1-ethyl-3-methylbenzene was found in both e-cig vapor and analog smoke. 1-ethyl-3-methylbenzene is not toluene but a chemical that contains 3 toluene molecular structures. so if your swimming in a pool of...

    what is your experience with chemistry? this study right here... http://clearstream.flavourart.it/sit...CSA_ItaEng.pdf the same one you posted. look on page 7

    Is Temperature the Future of Digital Vaping?

    temperature could be useful if we have some sort of guidelines from the e-liquid manufacturers as to what temperatures produce the least amount of unwanted / hazardous byproducts. the complexity and cost of determining these guidelines would be ridiculous, but not impossible. if the guidelines...

    Is Temperature the Future of Digital Vaping?

    any amount of 1-ethyl-3-methylbenzene is not safe for the human body... 1-ethyl-3-methylbenzene is a type of methylbenzene better known as Toluene. the heath effects of 1-ethyl-3-methylbenzene are not well documented. so its not that simple. but the heath effects of toluene are.

    Is Temperature the Future of Digital Vaping?

    "if the compounds are not present in vapor in any hazardous amounts" vaping is a Reduced Harm Alternative. no amount of 1-ethyl-3-methylbenzene is "safe" for you... "Causes other changes of the liver and kidney in 100-day intermittent inhalation studies of rabbits and rats; [RTECS] May...

    Is Temperature the Future of Digital Vaping?

    we are talking about temperature regulation of an e-cig atomizer.. i have no idea why you think it would be a good thing... but i can tell you that it has the potential to further reduce the amount of harmful compounds that are occurring in the vapor, if its implemented properly. this is the...

    Is Temperature the Future of Digital Vaping?

    vaping is about harm reduction, you would think we would want to reduce the amount of harm as much as we can...

    Is Temperature the Future of Digital Vaping?

    the hotter you get these compounds, the more unstable they become. at some point they become unstable and begin to turn into new and Potentially hazardous compounds.

    Is Temperature the Future of Digital Vaping?

    a quote from the link you posted "Conclusions Passive vaping is expected from the use of e-CIG. However, the quality and quantity of chemicals released to the environment are by far less harmful for the human health compared to regular tobacco cigarettes. Evaporation instead of burning, absence...

    Is Temperature the Future of Digital Vaping?

    when they run the gc ms analysis on the e-cig vapor, the person or company paying for the test, tells the test operator what compounds they should be looking for. so if no one ever tells the test operator to look for say Formaldehyde, it will never turn up positive or negative on the test...

    Is Temperature the Future of Digital Vaping?

    the numerous compounds we use for flavoring as well as the VG and PG and even nicotine, can become a bit unstable with the sorts of temps we figure e-cigs atomizers reach and form new and potentially hazardous compounds. the new compounds could be harmless or pretty harmful its just so hard to...

    Is Temperature the Future of Digital Vaping?

    you REALLY REALLY need to get the temp of the coil because its the hottest part. the vapor temp may cool and or condense faster or slower depending on a lot of different variables. i have methods of measuring the coil temp, they are accurate with in ± 20°C. i have seen temps as high as 250°C...
